Chapter Twenty-Six: Opening a Small Stove
William finally held back the bad taste in his heart, and soon he parted ways with Draco and his group, and walked with a few roommates to the Charms classroom on the fourth floor, where the Ravenclaw young wizards had two more classes to attend with Gryffindor.
The Charms professor at Hogwarts was a short wizard named Felius Flitwick, who was also the head of Ravenclaw House, whom William had met in the Great Hall of the Sorting House.
Despite Professor Flitwick's short stature, the need to stand on a pile of books to get a table, and his goblin blood, the students respected him so much that even Slytherin would not use his height to make a bad joke.
No, for Professor Flitwick was a perfect teacher, with a personality that was neither as stern as Professor McGonagall nor vicious as Professor Snape.
Like the Hufflepuff dean, Professor Sprout, he was a very amiable man, with a sense of humor and a devotion to every student, even the poor ones.
And despite the shrill voice of Professor Flitwick, he is no slouch at releasing spells, and he is arguably one of the few remaining spell masters in the world, with many unique insights into the understanding and use of spells. When he was young, he was the champion of the Wizard Duel Tournament and was a very accomplished wizard.
It is said that he has been teaching at Hogwarts since 1970 and has produced countless excellent wizards in the past two decades.
As for Professor Flitwick's age, Professor Flitwick, who actually has elven blood, can live for at least a hundred years, and maybe he is even older than Dumbledore now!
Professor Flitwick's Charms class was indeed as good as William had expected, even though the first-year textbook was only a "Standard Spell Elementary" called the basics of the basics, and Professor Flitwick only explained the principles of spellcasting first.
But William still had a feeling of being sudden, so William was very active in this lesson. You must know that in terms of William's magical attainments, the first-year course is really difficult to call a challenge, so those questions that made the other little wizards frown, William answered them very easily.
This made Professor Flitwick very happy, and he added a full ten points to Ravenclaw in one class, and after the class, William discussed with the professor about the problems he had encountered in casting spells and the spell he had concocted, the Impact Charm.
"It's hard to imagine that you're only eleven years old, and I didn't know what I was doing when I was eleven, and you're already quite accomplished in the way of magic." Professor Flitwick looked at William with a look of relief,
"Judging by today's performance, I can be sure that you really invented this spell yourself. I've read your academic paper, it's very well written, and you can post more of these papers in the future, not necessarily new spells, but improved spells or new uses of a spell can be published as a topic. ”
"The International Society of Magicians has a deep background, and publishing more academic papers will be very helpful for your future." Professor Flitwick taught.
"I see, Professor Flitwick."
"You're still too shallow for the use of the Impact Charm, though, and this spell can lead to many more magical uses. William, your mind is very lively, and it is this kind of imagination that is needed to improve and invent spells, so you might as well think about how the impact charm can be used. ”
"You can come to my office this Friday night, it's located in the West Tower, very close to the Ravenclaw Tower. I think there's a lot more we can discuss, so let's stop here today, William. ”
"Yes, thank you very much, Professor Flitwick."
For people with real talent and learning, William is very respectful. The brief chat with the professor just now gave William a lot of new ideas, and now he needs to talk about those ideas, collect them, and then find a quiet place where William can conduct magical experiments.
Wait a little longer, and then "accidentally" find the Room of Requirement, William thought to himself.
After all, it's only been two days since school started, and it seems a little too abrupt to find the Request Room for Request, and the location of the Request Room is on the eighth floor, which is a little too close to the principal's office. William was still a little confused about Dumbledore's attitude towards him, so it was better to be cautious first, after all, his family's reputation in the wizarding world was a bit bad.

Hermione Granger felt that her Charms class was terrible, and that the wonderful knowledge hadn't captivated the little girl as much as she usually did.
Why? Why is he so good? How could he have answered all those questions, and besides, Professor Flitwick was really biased, and he would have some questions himself, but he actually let William answer them, which really me off! The girl thought angrily, I must surpass him in the afternoon transfiguration class.
Thinking of this, the girl angrily picked up her schoolbag, turned around and walked out of the classroom with great strides, she was going to review the Transfiguration textbook after lunch, this time she couldn't let William surpass herself!
"What's wrong with her? Who messed with her again? Harry looked at Hermione's back as she turned away in a huff, and asked Ron beside him with some confusion.
"Merlin knows why!" Ron rolled his eyes and replied, "She's a weirdo who loves to learn, I don't know how she got into Gryffindor." “
"What did you talk about with the professor? How did it take so long to come out. As soon as William went out, Terry outside asked curiously,
"I didn't say anything, I just talked about the principles of spell casting and spell casting techniques, and the professor asked me to go to the office to find him on Friday night."
"Merlin is on top! It's only the second day of school, is the professor going to give you a small stove? I want to go too," Terry looked envious.
"Terry, you seem to have a stove on Friday night, but it's not Professor Flitwick, it's Professor Snape." Ike teased with a gloating expression.
"Yes, Ike! You're making fun of me. I never thought he was right behind me. ”
The group walked towards the auditorium with a smile and a smile.
I didn't see it, but the teenager who looked a little introverted actually had a naughty side. William thought with some amusement, but what could be the other use of the impact charm?
